...Scripture, the movie is frenziedly directed by Patrick McGoohan, and set to an overabundance of limpid rock music. Singer Richie Havens shows up as Othello, here portrayed as a back-country evangelist, and lets fly with a song every few minutes. lago is enacted by one Lance Le Gault, whose previous employment as a choreographer on Elvis Presley movies comes as no surprise. He leaps into the air a lot, and sometimes comes down...
...like the moon and it isn't," said Donald E. Gault, one of the scientists monitoring the Mariner data at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena, Calif. The pictures showed that Mercury's craters are much flatter and thinner-rimmed than the moon's and resemble giant pie pans-an indication that they may have been worn down by some yet-to-be-identified erosional process. Like most of their lunar counterparts, Mercury's craters were apparently created by impacts of asteroid-size chunks of material rather than by volcanic eruptions. Indeed, one crater...
...trumpet for this gastronomic treason is Le Nouveau Guide Gault-Millau, a glossy, 120-odd-page journalistic compendium of recipes, restaurant reviews and guides, plus lengthy culinary debates. The monthly magazine, now four years old, evolved from the two editors' decade-long collaboration on 18 guidebooks to France and beyond. "G. and M." as some call the Paris-based magazine, exerts influence far beyond its 145,000 circulation. Its editors are currently dashing the chauvinistic notion that to be gustatorily gifted is to be French. They regularly grade domestic Chinese, Indian, Indonesian and Vietnamese food...

Le Guide Michelin, the staid bible of French cuisine, generally evaluates only the notable and reserves judgment for three years...
Unlike many of their French newspaper competitors (and like U.S. food critics), Gault and Millau consistently name names. If commenting on Maxim's, they avoid such coy evasions as "a well-known restaurant on the Rue Royale." As a result, they sometimes face the fury of advertisers and libel suits. Of one establishment they recently wrote: "The fish soup was watery, the lobster brochette insipid . . . Only the maitre d'hôtel had a smile on his face." The offending Marseille restaurant-appropriately named Le New York -lost not only customers but the libel suit as well...
